[Mono-list] Mono and Apache

[Simon Waite]

ASP.NET (in my opinion - gonzalo/patrik, feel free to slap me down if I'm
wrong) is no where near ready to be run *in the same manner* as IIS.

Many of the methods need filling in, and perhaps there are definatly some
undocumented/under documented calls that need testcases to work properly.

My intentions to provide a framework that allows ASP.NET to work under
Apache (amongst others) is detailed in the mailing list archive.
Which at the time of writing is here:

http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/mono-list/2002-September/001817.html

If this gets wrapped then here is another link (which will expire)
http://makeashorterlink.com/?Y434322B1


Please read :-)

Regards,

Simon
